Updating a previous report, the Buffalo Bills' front office "leaned" on head coach Rex Ryan to make a significant change in the wake of the team's 37-31 loss in Week 2 to the New York Jets, leading to the dismissal of former offensive coordinator Greg Roman on Friday, Sept. 16.

Fantasy Tip: Obviously, Ryan was not going to part with his brother, Rob, for the shortcomings of the defense, so he turned to Roman instead. New offensive coordinator Anthony Lynn should be expected to maintain the same run-heavy philosophy Roman employed, but the Bills are facing an uphill battle if they hope to avoid a winless September with the Arizona Cardinals and New England Patriots next on the schedule.

Buffalo Bills offensive coordinator Greg Roman is on the verge of getting fired, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. The void left behind by Roman, who entered the season as the league's highest-paid offensive coordinator, will reportedly be filled by assistant head coach/running backs coach Anthony Lynn.

Buffalo Bills offensive coordinator Greg Roman wants to start building the 2015 offense with more mobile offensive linemen as opposed to the larger, less agile players from last season. Roman said he feels they do have a good nucleus of talent on the roster. They will also need better play from C Eric Wood, OT Cordy Glenn and OT Seantrel Henderson, in the opinion of The Buffalo News' Jay Skurski.

San Francisco 49ers offensive coordinator Greg Roman has agreed to become the Buffalo Bills new offensive coordinator, according to a source. Roman is expected to travel to Buffalo Monday, Jan. 12, and sign a contract.

Fantasy Tip: Roman's hire should help the fantasy value of the running backs on the Bills roster since he liked the use the running game with the 49ers. Fred Jackson appears to be the top running back for the team entering next season since C.J. Spiller will be an unrestricted free-agent this offseason. Jackson could be a No. 2 running back in fantasy drafts next season if he wins the starting job.
